For the benefit of gentle readers in the provinces, I should explain that the Pelican Club is a well-known brothel. So, what is going on? Has demand outstripped supply? Is the world's oldest profession short of professionals? I only ask because I recall all the jeremiads that were written when the Prostitution Reform Bill was before Parliament, which predicted the the luring of disco dollies to a life of vice on an unprecedented scale. We were told that respectable young women from the suburbs would be ensnared by the brothel-keepers, that Auckland would become Sin City, that morality and decency would be no more. Yet, five years later, the brothel-keepers have a tart shortage.

Portrait of the artist

"Dandyism is above all the burning need to make oneself an original, contained within the outer limits of propriety. It is a kind of self-worship... It is the pleasure of surprising others and the prideful satisfaction of never being surprised."
